Make Money Online – Building A Is Perfect For You

Internet Business has skyrocketed in recent times. Everyone is looking for ways to make money online, build their own business from home, have time for their family and friends and fulfill a dream or ambition for their own success.

It is easier, cheaper and quicker to start and promote business today than it has ever been before. You can have a website and marketing started in under a hour. Social media means you can expand to audiences that 10 years ago you would never have dreamed of talking to. No longer do you have to lease a shop or spend huge amounts of money to get started – you can just begin with what you have, even if it’s nothing.

Isn’t that wonderful?

There is so much help and training available, so many ways for you to learn and prosper that it’s time to get going for yourself. Here are some reasons why I love to build businesses online;

1. The freedom to do something that you love

Imagine being your own boss, setting your own hours and establishing your own goals. Sharing with others those things that you absolutely love and are passionate about and at the same time generating an income.

Don’t underestimate how valuable your life experience is, your knowledge about how to do something, or how to get through a phase in life, or how certain products have really helped you. There are always people who are looking for direction, looking for what you can help them with.

The absolute freedom about it is, you don’t have to be the complete expert from day one, you can just start and learn to master the skills as you go.

2. You can run your business from wherever you want

Smart phones have made running a business ridiculously easy, from anywhere in the world (as long as you can get an internet connection at some point!). iPhones, iPads, laptops or even old computers can allow you to run your business from home, the local cafe, the train on the way to a football game or even while you’re in the waiting room at the dentist. Last year, I was on a cruise overseas that had ridiculously expensive internet, so I only connected once a day for 5-10 minutes to run my business. I was away for 10 days and other than dealing with a few emails, it all ran without me.

The creation of content that sells as product is hugely popular all over the internet right now. People want to learn everything. How to train their dog, how to get stains out of white clothes, how to build a website, how to survive grief when your child passes away; there is no limit now that the world is online. Your life experiences can help someone else, do not doubt it.

Digital product, once it is created, can be purchased and downloaded to any computer anywhere in the world. No shipping, no fuss. You don’t even have to create the product yourself – there is help available very inexpensively to do it for you.

By digital product I’m talking about writing an eBook, or a video series or a recorded message or interview. You can create online tele-seminars or write articles that can sold on Amazon. If you’re creative and technical you can help other people in their businesses online.

There are some companies that can turn your digital product into a physical product and ship it anywhere in the world for you, all online with no extra work from you.

If you’re not ready to create your own products to sell, sell other peoples products. You can set up an affiliate seller account and receive a commission for marketing and selling other peoples products. No start-up cost, no technical knowledge needed, just some time and effort to get going.

4. The cost of starting can be very low

Where else can you start a business virtually for free? If you really have no money at all, you can start on some of the free blogging platforms like Blogger, or Tumblr, or WordPress.org, even eBay is free to join to start selling from. This is really not my personal preference, and I don’t advise it as a business strategy.

If you really want to build something that will give you an income and the freedom you want over the long-term, then for a small fee you can buy a name and build your own website with a few clicks – it doesn’t have to be perfect, you just have to start. For about $10-12 you can buy your own domain name (the name of your website), to host your website can cost you from $4 to 8 per month, you can install a website at the click of a button and away you go.

There are so many cheap, quick ways to get going.

5. Set your own work hours – let the internet work for you while you’re out living

Once you’ve managed to set up something and there are some systems in place, you really do not need to be there all the time. You certainly don’t need to be working 40, 50, 60 hour weeks unless that’s what you want to do. I know some people who literally work 4-10 hours a week on their business and they are earning six figure incomes. Internet marketing is the perfect industry for those systems to do a lot of the work for you, it’s all about leveraging what you’ve created.

6. Any job you can think of, someone else can do it for you

There is a term that is used a lot on the internet for this, it’s called ‘outsourcing’. Basically all that means is someone else can build your website, or write an article for you, or create the listings on Ebay or make a pretty picture header for your Facebook business page.

All of these things require some knowledge of how to do them and not everyone can do all of it – and really, why would you want to when you can hire someone $10-20 an hour to write you a whole page article, that probably would have taken you all day to get the words on paper. You don’t have to be technical about your website, you can outsource the bits you struggle with. Don’t be afraid of what you don’t know or don’t think you can do, help is available.

7. Learn valuable skills that are transferable

No matter how old or how young you are, you can absolutely learn new skills online. It is all within you, the ability to learn and create is just waiting for an outlet. You might learn how to write emails to people so that they feel a connection with you and your product or service. Maybe you’ll learn how to install your own WordPress blog (it’s easy, really, you can do it). There are so many skills you can learn by creating an online business that it can even help you improve your chances of other forms of employment.

I know sometimes it can be overwhelming, and you feel a little intimated or fearful of knowing where or how to start but don’t let your feelings hold you back from the future you could have. You can start something easily and cheaply by yourself and just learn as you go, or if you want to have a faster chance of success then find some training, work with a mentor – do everything you can to move forward.

Right now is the best time ever to create the life and business you deserve. Don’t delay, don’t think you don’t have time or resources, your dream is at stake, your freedom and sense of fulfilment is in your hands, let’s do this thing.
